The homeless issue in Austin is driven primarily by two failed systems:
1. Progressive Prosecutors
2. Housing First
Shared Belief: drug addiction, mental illness, and street camping should not be criminalized and services should be used instead of forceful consequences.
Trump is controlled or unwilling to do the hard things that he promised and that got him elected.
Of course there’s opposition, immigration is kind of the only thing that matters, it determines elections and our fate and everyone knows it.
The right has been hoodwinked about immigration for 10 yrs. It goes unsolved so they can keep using it to milk votes from us and they are unwilling to truly battle the left over immigration and fix it.
Rubio is a part of the charade. We need someone else that will truly go to bat for us about immigration and fix it.
@MontgomeryToms@VladTheInflator@FreedomWatchGB We’ve given women too much power and influence. It’s called late stage luxury and it’s taken down the greatest of civilizations all throughout history.
All of this sounds great and of course we all agree with it……but it’s more Trumpian empty promises.
The exact same thing will happen. We will get border security but no border wall, we will get deportations but no mass deportations and no policy changes.
Rubio has already been to India twice this year. He’s trying to intercept the America First energy and use it to run in 2028…..but he will sell us out and deliver nothing just like Trump. He’s not the guy.
@data_atx If you rent to poor people and your building is fucked up and your operation is unprofitable, you are part of the proletariat in Austin and yes your failure will be rewarded.
United States is the most diverse and generous nation on earth. Foreigners in the US receive more welfare than native born Americans….and we have the most amount of foreigners than any other country. When will you be satisfied? Perhaps you should show some gratitude to the most diverse and charitable nation to ever exist.
@data_atx Local politics used to be cute and the biggest controversy was a bridge or something…..and now we’re debating whether the city should be run by communists or not.
@StateDept Special kind of evil to use this sacred issue that’s tearing our country apart and using it to milk votes from us with no intention of actually fixing the problem. Special kind of evil.
